I want to first start off by thanking every one of you who took the time to send in your amazing creations. We didn’t anticipate there would be so many people interested in entering our Fakemon Design Contest, so a big thank you to you all for making it a big success. The judging process was very difficult because there were so many great entries to choose from. At the end, we chose the ones we thought were the most unique, creative and best represented the category it was entered in. I would also like to thank Hardrock-Pokemon once again for generously donating a handful of plushies for our contest. Also, a big thanks to Sunyshore/Gin, Monty and Frugrow for helping judge the contest.

As a note, there are 5 winners from each category as well as 2 winners that were randomly drawn from each category. The winner of the “early bird entries” is quivervine123.

1st place winners will each get to select one prize from the prize pot, a Pokemon Black and Pokemon White artfolio, and their artwork displayed on our website. All winners will be contacted by email later this week so please remember to check your email.

Information on how to claim a prize as well as an updated prize list will also be posted later this week.

Without further adieu, here are the winners from our Fakemon Design Contest! Well done everyone!

Fire/Water

1st place: When I first saw this category, I envisioned a Pokemon exactly like this one. It’s like the artist was able to read my mind! I really hope to see a similar Pokemon like this in a future Pokemon game.

2nd place: We’ve had many lizards in the past but we’ve yet to have a salamander with a geyser on its back!

3rd place: What a unique looking Pokemon. I just love the contrasting elements of its design. I can definitely see this creature in a Pokemon game. Actually, it looks like it could belong in the Hoenn region’s tropical environment.

4th place

5th place

Fire/Grass

1st place: Silfirea’s design blew me away the first time I saw it. It’s so elegant, pleasing to the eyes, and definitely looks like it fits in the Pokemon world.

2nd place: I really enjoy Entorch’s design. It’s so sinister looking and looks like a tree you definitely don’t want to mess with!

3rd place: What a brilliant design! I love how much thought went into this design. It appears like any normal, old fallen log on the ground, but upon a closer look, it’s actually a ferocious Pokemon. I feel sorry for any Pokemon nearby that’s a part of its food chain.

4th place

5th place

Fire/Ice

1st place: The design is fairly simple but unambiguous, and bears a strong resemblance to Sugimori’s style.

2nd place: Creative design, detailed but not too complex.

3rd place: Very unique appearance, the sort of thing I’d want on my team based on looks alone.

4th place

5th place

Fire/Electric

1st place: I absolutely love this design, it looks like a great new Pokemon utilizing an incredibly unique idea; a lightning-horned fire rhino. The color scheme is also fantastic and eye-catching. I can just imagine the sort of adorable little critter he could evolve from. Such a great imaginary addition to the Pokemon world.

2nd place: This would make a spectacular new legendary Pokemon, perhaps with elemental counterparts, maybe some of the other entries in this contest in the other type categories! Love the colors, and the design is also incredibly loyal to Pokemon; I really feel like it would fit right in.

3rd place: This has got to be one of the most unique and refreshing Pokemon design ever! How can something so ordinary such as a stove look so
cool and threatening at the same time?

Hi Everyone,
I would like to say thank you for everyone’s support on recommending me and pulling me through this competition. Although the result was not the brightest it may be, without you supporters, I would not have continued making more entries.
Thank you, and congratulations to all who have won.

Ok, all I said was that I am grateful for everyone that supported me through the comments and rooted me throughout the competition
Plus, I meant that my drawings were a little rushed with my busy life and their ideas were worse than the winners-that is why i said the results werent as brightest as they may be
Plus, please do not take it so seriously-I think the judges comments and selection was completely fair-no hard feelings, ok?

caught myself a hoouudnr, but now every time i go to the spooky manor, i just walk through and see no other pokemon. not so much as a berry or anything. do you need to play it at night to catch anything else?

Wow, I can’t believe I actually won. Thank yoooouuuu ; A ; (and thank you so much to the two people that mentioned my entries in their predictions–it meant a lot to me). I really wasn’t expecting to place at all compared to all the amazing Sugimori-styled entries–those are some seriously legit looking fakemon.

I feel bummed out. I wanted to enter really badly but I couldn’t upload a single pic despite going to ALL the suggested sites. So if one does start working could I send some to you peoples even though the competition is over? I don’t reaaly care about the competition now that it’s done, I just like to make Fakemon.

Which is why the fire and ice are on there.
In all honesty, I didn’t expect that one of the ones I entered to win… I think the explanation helps a lot, but it isn’t all that easy to access (deviantART and in the comments among the entries) so I can see where you’re coming from.

Wow, really? I-wow! That’s awfully flattering!
Especially since the one you bestowed first upon wasn’t even my personal favorite. Thank you all the more!
But now you’ve got me curious: I want to know which was the one you all voted into the top 3! XD

My developer is triyng to convince me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on numerous websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform. I have heard excellent things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress posts into it? Any kind of help would be really appreciated!

Great job i want the 1st place winner of the fire eletric to be in pokemon x and y. Also the winner of the Grass/Fire is kinda like meoletia because it can change form and i hope it has a speical power like frenzy storm or plant burst. Any way congratulations winners.
